I have worked with several female officers over the years. All were crazy as a bag full of cats.

I have a 10FP McMillan that I bought several years back just because i wanted to try a Savage and see what they were about.
Still haven't shot it a lot. Probably should remedy that but there are others that just more enticing in the stable.

I am guilty as f!@# and proud of it!!! At least until I'm not

Currently running 180 grain Gamechanger at 2800 in a 20" 308 win

Sure! It won't affect the price much, but yea- 1850 shipped without warne rings.

Thanks!

Man if you think 22rf's are zany then just own a pcp air rifle for a while and you'll learn what finicky really is. Though some pcp's are just about trouble free and others can be a PITA.

It's mostly the match 22rf ammo cost that drove me away from shooting mine more often but also I can shoot the pcp's on my property.

One pcp I have I swage 4400, 22 cal, 42gr, slugs for $165 and it'll outshoot my Anschutz 22rf at 50Y using match ammo. I shot my best 100Y group with this air rifle slug gun vs my Anschutz.

Man what you stated is right on the mark! It's pretty insane no one has built a super stout pcp repeater yet. The potential is already present for pcp's to out do 22rf using current slug designs and as a bonus super low SD too.

I've already mentioned it here on SH but those 25 cal Altaros 60gr are noticeably superior in the wind at longer distances than 22rf standard velocity because of the .245 G1 BC they have. In windier conditions I can stay on the steel with these more whereas not so much with 22rf.
Firearms wise at long range a loose comparison could be like a 223 using 77's/22rf vs a 6mm Dasher using 105's/60gr Altaros slugs.

I have seen you say that about those Toros. I loved your comparison to the awesome 22LR you have. That is crazy how good they can be at that distance. We need Mike N to make a repeater!

That AX is one of the few modern AIs that look good to me.

It's hard to take what you say seriously if you just dismiss the load data as "lawyer loads", you can see the pressure and there's 3rd party testing out there that confirms that the pressures are accurate. But again the question leads to, why don't you just shoot a cartridge with more case capacity and run a slower powder and achieve the same higher velocity at lower pressure?

Click to expand...

You did not read what I wrote. I find where a given case, bullet, powder, primer combination (varying only powder weight) shows pressure then back down.

You said that 3rd party people confirm the reloading manual numbers, where is this data confirming reloading manual pressures? Do they use the same measurement tools and techniques? I am confident that the people who prepare reloading manuals report their measurements honestly and accurately. But suppose that my barrel length or inside diameter or twist is different? I use 5R rifling profile, how many manuals use 5R barrels? Suppose I use different primers or cases or bullets. Do you know how to adjust manual pressure numbers for these differences? Please enlighten us.

For example, I use Federal primers - known to be somewhat soft so they show pressure sooner.

In 308 I use mostly Lake City LR brass with a reputation for thick walls and smaller case volume than Lapua. I also shoot Lapua, oddly enough with the same powder charge and to the same point of impact. I use 175 SMK bullets - pretty normal. GRT says that I am getting 53,800 psi (max is 60,191, my load is 89.3% of max) with an estimated muzzle velocity of 2,608 - the MV matches my measurements.

In 300 PRC, I use Lapua brass and Berger 230 grain bullets with secant ogive and J4 jackets. Those jackets and bearing surface are different than SMKs. Lapua brass is harder than Hornady and handles pressure better. GRT says that I am getting 57,172 psi (max is 63,817, my load is 89.5% of max) with an estimated muzzle velocity of 2,790 - 97.8% of actual. Actual measurements tell me that my muzzle velocity is 2,850.

GRT is a simulator using a LOT of math and exact numbers when the actual items being modeled vary and some of those calculations vary in non-linear fashion. GRT was careful to tell me that 300 PRC case volume varies, I accepted their guess. Same with the Berger bullets. I figure if it gets within 5 percent I think that is pretty darn good. If you think my loads are hot, I think you are wrong.

I picked up CATs 6arc can to dedicate to mine and love it. Shot at a local indoor range yesterday with it and had zero gas to the face, and sounded great when Ive shot it outdoors as well. 18” rlgs with a5h2 and springo green spring it shoots very smooth

Click to expand...

Yep, I run a CAT Noah Ti on my main 6 ARC and it's pretty great in that application for gas and suppression. My B&T RBS 762 also does well with the little ARC.

About to pop my cherry on a 6ARC. I do run and gun shit so absolute accuracy and MV is not as important as a package that shoots about MOA and is handy over 3-8 miles.

Pulling down my 14.5” intermediate gas upper and replacing with a Noveske Afghan 14.5, will have a P&W Surefire three prong and if I run a can it’ll be a 7.62 RC2.

Have some Duramags on the way as well as 4 different bullets, from 95gr to 107.

Leaving brass along a course is gonna suck,,, but I think this may be a little advantage in the DMR style R&Gs without going to the weight and recoil of a large frame. We’ll see..


If I like it, will probably wear a 4-16x42 ATACR eventually. Will start with either the G3 1-10 that’s on it now or I’ll move a 3-15 NXS F1 over, though that gonna be choncky with a red dot up top .

Noveskes DDF barrel is lighter than the afghan if that’s important to you. I imagine they’ll go on sale again Labor Day.

I moved my Razor over from a bolt gun as I love shooting that 6ARC!

What about an Ecco Machine Accipiter Ti .375 in 9" length? $955.

Yup mine is waiting too but it’s sporting its big brother for the time being.

I’m going to use it only on my two Sakos TRG for range shooting. I don’t hunt anymore. So yes target fun only.

Then get one of the Dead Air 33 and run with it. Can use it on both and if you wanted to get a shorter cab down the road for the 6.5 you can. Lots for good deals out there now. Silencer Shop has some free stamp deals now too.

I laughed and laughed. There were others.

Thank you,
MrSmith

The "Savage" one is a 2 piece made by accurate mag. I'd much prefer a single piece. I think the Atlasworx would be my first choice. The ptg can be had from places like midwayusa and others that have them in stock so you wouldn't have to deal with them directly.

I want to get the barrel threaded, and thought maybe get the inlet ting and barrel threaded at the same time.
